starting point, and in the five or six
hundred miles Of wilderness wildness
which lies between that and the open
river below, will run the gauntlet OF
rapids, falls, rocks and other dangers,
such as are absolutely unknown and are
supposed to be unsurmountsble. This
whole distance OF six hundred miles
must be very rugged, as 1t has not been
explored, even by the boundary COM
missioners and is regarded as complete
" unknown. In this distance the river
falls 5000 feet, and II the explorers make
their way through, they will have not
only achieved an undertaking generally
considered impossible, but will have ex-
periences, such as will very probably
satisfy life time thirst for adventure.
The outcome OF this perilous attempt OF
Messrs. Stringfellow and Dickey will
be awaited most anxiously, and their re-
port will be the sensation OF this years

CHOKING CATARRH.

Have you awakened from a disturbed sleep
with all the horrible sensations of an assassin
clutching your throat and pressing the life
breath from your frightened chest2 Have you
noticed the l6nguOr and debility that succeed
the effort to clear your throat and head of
this catarrhal matter? What a depressing in
huence it exeIts upon the mind, clOuding the
memory and filling the head with pains and
strange noises! How difficult il is to rid the
nasal passages, throat and lungs of this poi
sOnOus mucus all can testify who are afflicted
with catarTh. How difficult to protect the
system against its further progress tow ards
the lungs, liver and kidneys all physicians
will admit. II is terrible disease and cries
out for relief and cure.
The remarkable curative powers, when all
other remedies utterly fail, of SANFORD's
RADICAL CURE, are attested by thousands who
gratefully recommend ii to fellOw-sufferers
No statement is made regarding il that cannot
be substantiated by the most respectable and
reliable references.
Each packet contains one bottle of the RAD
lCAL CURE, one box CATARRHAL SOLVENT
and an IMPROVED INHALER, with treatise and
directions, and is sold by all druggists for 81.

GROVER has shown that he has neither
part nor lot In those matters concerning
which the whole soul of the Grand
Army is bound up. He is the first presi'
dent since the war who has not only
shown no sympathy with the patriotic
deeds Of the past, but the only one
whose patriotism has not been mani
tested by words and deeds conspicuous
ly. 1t Is n singular comment upon the
character OF his administration that he
has had to travel outside Of the patriot
ism OF the nation to find his followers
and his strength. IL he can stand this

WHEN men Of all parties are agreed
upon any one thing, 1t should not be
very difficult to compass Its adoption.
All political parties IN this country are
agreed that immigration should be re-
stricted and naturalization made more
difficult, by extending the period Of resi-
dence in this country before papers can
be taken out, and also by granting full
citizenship papers only upon the lapse
Of certain years after Intentions have
been declared. 1t never was the inten-
ton of this government to confer citi-
zen rights upon an immigrant under five
years residence in this oOuntryf and yet
men are naturalized and permitted to
vote after passing the same number Of
months in this state as is required to
give legal voter from another state a
residence. The great political parties
having no differences OF expressed Opin-
ion upon these questions OF nsturaliza-
tion and immigration, there should be
no delay in the next congress over the
matter, and the will OF the people In this
thing should become law at once.

Removing a Serious Obstruction
Gently.

Dynamite and giant powder might answer
admirably to remove distractions from He'll
Gate in East River New York, but explosive
measures in medication are ever attended
with disastrous consequences. For instance,
the bowels cannot be violently drenched with
safety, nor is there the slightest necessity for
SO doing On the contrary, it is most unwise.
None but the purblind adherents of antiquated
theories in medicine advise or sanction such a
course. To weaken the intestnes-the effect
of drastic purgatiOn-is to compromise the
health of the entire system. With HOstetter's
Stomach Bitters, on the other hand, the bow
els are relaxed, not by a CONFUSION of nature
apprOXimating to an eruption of Mt. POpOca-
tapetl. but gradually, bGncticially, without
wrcnching or drcnchinE. The liver and stOm-
ach, rs well us the bowels, are toned and bene-
fitted by it. 9-23-Gt

The remark of prostmaster Corse, OF
Boston, throws much light on the situa-
ton. Corse says: II am the servant of
President Cleveland" Hitherto II was
considered sufficient for man in office
to consider himself the servant of the
people, but under this administration
democratic the public offices are held
by the servants of Mr.. Cleveland, and
their tenure OF office is determined by
the faithlessness of that personal service.
Whether this government will better
carry out the purpose of its ordainment
and better serve the people by whom it
was instituted by being made the per-
sonal servitor OF Mr.. Cleveland is for
the people to determine next year. The
idea is certainly new one and one not
hitherto accepted in these American
states. The experiment in many little
ways does not appear to be approved
Of by the people and the signs of the
times indicate that four years expert
ence Of this thing will be ample to sat-
isfy the most loose jointed of politicians.

as in the case of young Grant, who IL

cent meeting, calling upon congress at
Its next session to establish such re-
serve, and that it shall be composed of
officers and men from the mercantile
marine, yachtsmen, ex-naval and rev.
enue officers and watermen generally
seems to have met with very general ap-
prOyal all along the coasts Of the United
States. The bill will be drafted by q
committee after conference with the
secretary or the navy, who fsvors the
scheme, and will authorize the payment
OF bOunties to such ship owners as con-
struot their vessels according to the re-
quirements of the navy department, that
is with reference to their employment
by the United States In time OF neoes-
sity. The reserve will be enrolled for
periods not exceeding five years, and
will be stationed yearly for instruction
during a given period for which they
will receive pay. They will be liable
for service when called on and will prove
very efficient arm Of the naval service.
1t will help ship owners and provide an
